From the world of martial arts

Chapter 220

"Shoot! Keep shooting!"

Outside Niu Fu's camp, the archers and crossbowmen of the coalition army kept shooting arrows towards the camp.

The arrows were shining like rain, dripping into the camp.

However, above Niu Fu's camp, there was a light curtain, an invisible barrier, and the arrow fell down. After passing through this invisible light curtain, the originally high-speed arrow lost its power in an instant.

"It seems that in Niu Fu's barracks, there are also some scribes of magic arts, but relying on these scribes, it is not enough to stop my crossbowmen."

Su Fan looked at the Niu Fu barracks in the distance and smiled.

In this era, the scribes accompanying the army are no longer powerless, they also have the role of sons, especially they can release various spells, which can be used for attack and defense.

Of course, it is not easy for this method to become a routine.

After all, those who want to cast spells usually need at least four or five layers of soul cultivation.

It is destined to be more difficult for scribes to practice soul dao than martial arts. It is easy for warriors to practice body, but it is very difficult to practice at a high level.

Soul Dao can be said to be very difficult from the beginning, and the requirements for talents are even stricter.

Therefore, it is destined that scribes are much less than warriors.

Moreover, the inheritance of the literati's soul way is generally from the aristocratic and wealthy families, and the lower classes have no chance to learn the method of the soul way.

This is also doomed, scribes cannot become a conventional means on the battlefield.

Niu Fu's army had scribes, but Su Fan didn't care. Many armies had them, because scribes could indeed play a role in war sometimes.

Especially some scribes who are proficient in earth magic.

However, it is impossible for scribes to become a conventional method. Most of the scribes have unusual backgrounds, so how could they act as "thugs" in the army.

Only Zhang Jiao's Taiping Dao has so many Taoist masters.

It's a pity that after the Taiping Dao was suppressed, most of the Taoists were persecuted, and some of them were taken in as slaves by the aristocratic family.

There are some scribes in the Niufu barracks, but certainly not many.

If he could block one or two attacks, he would definitely not be able to block Su Fan's many attacks.

In terms of logistics, Su Fan is confident that even the Yuan family who has accumulated thousands of years may not be able to match him.

It is true that after accumulating for thousands of years, Yuan's may be able to take out more than Su Fan at once, but compared to consumption, it is absolutely incomparable with Su Fan.

Su Fan's East China Sea Territory can be said to be a large industrial base for logistics, with millions of people running around for his logistics.

He doesn't care about the consumption of weapons at all, even if he consumes [-] arrows a day, he will recover quickly.

The manufacturing of the assembly line, the Ministry of Industry under his command, if it goes all out to manufacture arrows, it will definitely not be a problem even if it can produce [-] arrows a day.

The Ministry of Industry of the Eastern Sea Territory may not be as advanced in World War I and World War II in terms of technology alone, but with the blessing of some extraordinary technologies, the comprehensive technical production is no worse than that of some second-rate countries in World War I.

So he doesn't care about the consumption of arrows.

In this battle, he brought a total of millions of arrows, enough for him to squander for a while.

Moreover, among his army, there are hundreds of craftsmen who can temporarily make arrows locally. The quality may not be as good as that of the East China Sea Territory, but it is not inferior to the arrows of other armies.

Su Fan commanded the battle without any skills or tactics. He just used absolute power, just like Uncle Sam in later generations, he used super technology and logistics.

Catapults and crossbows, these two long-range sharp weapons, continued to attack.

For Niu Fu's military camp, the means of defense are the defensive techniques of the scribes and the military spirit generated by the military formation, which can weaken the power.

But they cannot last.

"withdraw troops!"

Feeling that it was almost done, Su Fan immediately ordered Ming Jin to withdraw.

The army retreated in an orderly manner, and Niu Fu's barracks did not dare to send troops out, because they had been beaten back when they came out before.

Especially when the cavalry wanted to charge into the formation, Su Fan used Xu Chu Zang to overpower many strong men, and gathered the cavalry to intercept them. There was no tendency to charge into the formation, and they did not pose any threat to Su Fan's army at all.

What's more, Niu Fu's Xiliang army couldn't gain an advantage in numbers, and Su Fan had tens of thousands of elite troops. With Tao Qian and Kong Ni's army, they couldn't take advantage of it at all.

After two times, Niu Fu became honest.

Don't dare to send troops out to pursue.

Only passive defense.

"Ning'an, you just use crossbows and throwing stones every day, and long-range attacks won't have much effect, right? Why don't you directly attack their camp with an army?"

At night, Tao Qian and Kong Ni found Su Fan and asked curiously.

They had already decided that the main battle was Su Fan. Although Su Fan had the fewest soldiers, after so many days of observation, they knew very well that in terms of combat power, Su Fan was definitely the strongest.

Especially when they knew that Su Fan had several generals who had refined Gang, they felt more at ease.

Especially Tao Qian, who has experienced wars, knows very well that if a large army is led by Lian Gang, even if his ability to lead troops is not very good, at least his morale will definitely not be bad by relying on bravery.

As for the commander's ability to command, they could see clearly these days that Su Fan's command seemed to be quite satisfactory, but they were able to exert their greatest power in such a satisfactory manner.

No need for any conspiracies, just an upright battle, but Niu Fu's army was overwhelmed, and they dared not leave their camp.

"Of course, Ning An, we're not questioning your battle plan, but it's just a waste of time, right?"

"The consumption is indeed a bit high, but well, I can still bear these. I prepared a lot of arrows before. As for the stones, they are everywhere."

"The reason why I didn't choose to attack directly is that Niu Fu's camp is very solid. If you want to rush in, you will inevitably cause huge losses, and you may not be able to attack in one go."

"Although compassion does not command soldiers, if there are unnecessary losses, then try not to. After all, these people follow me, and I hope to bring them back intact."

"Ning An is kind"

When Tao Qian heard the words, he smiled and praised, but whether he was sincere or not, only he knew.

"And I choose a long-range attack. First, it can consume the opponent's vitality as much as possible. Niu Fu's army itself is not much larger than ours."

"Now we are constantly depleting their troops, and we are also preparing for the future war"

"And this kind of daily attack can also damage the morale of the opponent."

"In the past few days, I have observed that the defense of Niufu Camp was Xiliang infantry on the first day, but from the third day to the fourth day until now, the defensive soldiers have changed."

"Niu Fu is not stupid, so naturally he won't let his elites be wasted for you"

"It's true that he's not stupid, but the soldiers and horses under his command include the Xiliang army, the forbidden army of the imperial court, and some soldiers and horses stationed from other places, which are quite messy."

"Originally, the relationship between the Xiliang army, the imperial army and the local army was not good. Now Niu Fu let the Xiliang army rest behind, and let the imperial army and local army bear my attack."

"What kind of consequences will this cause? It is obvious that the morale will be low. What's more serious is that it will increase the dissatisfaction and even hatred of the Imperial Army and the Xiliang Army of the local army."

"When this dissatisfaction and hatred reach a certain level"

"As long as this dissatisfaction is detonated, it is very likely that they will fight among themselves?"

Tao Qian and Kong Ni were not fools, they figured it out in an instant, and the way they looked at Su Fan became different.
